Four people were arrested after police tracked a mobile phone stolen in a knifepoint burglary in Coventry.

Three men and a teenager were arrested on suspicion of aggravated burglary after a 37-year-old had his car keys and mobile phone stolen at his home in Cheylesmore in the early hours of Sunday.

He was threatened with a knife before the men searched his property in Wrigsham Street at around 3.50am.

Police were led to the four men, who escaped in a silver Vauxhall Astra, after tracking the victim’s mobile phone, which was stolen along with his car keys and other belongings.

The stolen iPhone was tracked to Clay Lane, Stoke, where a Vauxhall Astra was found parked up.

A police dog led officers to a nearby house where a 29-year-old tried to run from the address before being arrested on suspicion of aggravated burglary.

A teenager aged 15 and two 29-year-olds who were inside the property were also arrested.

All four remain in police custody and are being questioned by detectives.

All of the man’s stolen items were recovered from the property and will be examined by forensics.

Detective Inspector Rod Rose of West Midlands Police said: “The swift actions of the victim and officers from across the force means that four suspected burglars are in custody this morning and all of the man’s property was recovered.”
